Today I was notified that a manifesto proposal I sent to ChangeThis.com has been accepted for peer review. What happens now is that people vote for the proposals that they’d like to see transformed into full-fledged manifestos (an argument, a reasoned, rational call to action, supported by logic and facts), which are available for downloading on the ChangeThis web site. ChangeThis is a not-for-profit engine aimed at changing minds and spreading ideas. It was developed in the summer of ‘04 by a group of people inspired by marketing guru Seth Godin. It features a variety of manifestos written by many different authors on many different topics.

My proposal is about, you guessed it, Escaping Adulthood. If my proposal is selected and I am asked to pen the full manifesto, it could be HUGE for the awareness of Kim & Jason and my upcoming book. If you’d like to help me, here’s an easy thing you can do: Click on the link below and then click on "Yes, Write This Manifesto." That’s it.

Vote here:http://www.changethis.com/proposals/454

Thanks for the support.

Go Jason! Your efforts are so needed. We need to enjoy life that we have today and not simply wish to have more and more. That is the true joy of life…just like in the eyes of a child.

Maintaining a child like attitude in our fast moving culture is very important. We are blessed when we can accomplish this.

[...] A big, fat, juicy thank you to everyone who voted for my manifesto at ChangeThis.com. The happy news I have to report is that it garnered enough interest to be published on their web site. Basically, it is a summary of my book, an overview of why and how to escape this thing called "adulthood." The manifesto itself is free to download, and you can even e-mail it to your friends to pass along. If you really, really like it, a more in-depth version was printed on dead trees in book format.
